Offline : free your mind from smartphone and social media stress

Rashid, Imran Dr2019

Are you being digitally manipulated? Regain control of your life! Did you know that tech giants like Apple, Google and Facebook use 'brain hacks' to get you and your children hooked on their products. And that these techniques 'rewire' your brain to create compulsive subconscious habits that play havoc with your focus and ability to make rational decisions? 'Offline' takes you on a fascinating and eye-opening journey into the tsunami of behavioural change created by tech giants based on the use of neuroplasticity, social engineering and digitally driven subconscious manipulation. Dr Imran Rashid and Soren Kenner explains the biological and psychological mechanisms used to capture and resell your attention to others, and reveal the early warning signs of an unhealthy (and even potentially life-threatening) digital lifestyle.
